A Homemade ( Sundae )

"Growing up in Kearney, Missouri in the '60s & '70s the only place in town that had a true soda fountain was Matthew's Drug Store. On very special occasions we were allowed to order a Homemade. Gently warm the toppings for the best results."

  1. Having grown up in Platte City, Missouri during the same time frame this brought back lots of good memories. I worked at the local hanburger/soda stand during high school and wish I had a dollar for everyone of these I made back then. Thanks for the reminder of simpler times.
     
  2. Couldn't help commenting on this as I grew up about 120 miles norteast of Kearney in Macon, Mo in the 60's and our drugstore served these under the name of Old Maid. Sure was good as a Saturday morning treat.
